CHiPS: Colossally Hideous Putrid Scenario
So now they intend to make a movie out of ChIPS??? Oyyyyyy. Do studio executives just give writers old copies of TV Guide and say “Hey, find something in here to adapt?”
Star Wilmer Valderrama claims that unilke other TV-to-film adaptations, this one will take CHiPS seriously. I’ll let you all ponder the irony of that phrase.
I suggest that the best way to give this movie some spark is to get Valderrama’s alleged sexual conquests, Lindsay Lohan, Mandy Moore, Jennifer Love Hewitt, Ashlee Simpson, et al, to co-star, and the movie can be like The House of Flying Daggers — from the girls’ eyes. THEN we’ll see something interesting!
But geesh, what’s left anymore? A big-screen adaptation of B.J. and the Bear starring Paul Walker and a chimp?
Well, at least then Walker will find an equal acting partner — with apologies to the chump, er chimp.

Hollywood is out of fresh ideas.. They have been for about the last 2-3 years.. Hopefully, someone somewhere will clue them in that a constant stream of sequels, remakes, and tv adaptations are the reason that ticket sales are down.. Not piracy and not DVDs…
